FREE WEBINAR - DO NOT MISS THIS! The single most powerful way to market your business is...

A book. Not just any book, but a book
that YOU have written. And not just any book - a best seller! At first,
you may scoff at the idea. But I'm here to tell you that not only is it
possible, it is highly likely if you attend this free webinar. And not
in dog years either. You can absolutely and actually write a best seller
in your field of experience in as little as one weekend, no kidding. Of
course, most people won't. They'll find all kinds of excuses why not.
But let me ask you three simple questions and you can decide for
yourself.

1. Are you good at what you do? Do you have a valuable expertise that others can benefit from?
2. Are you willing to share that knowledge by following a very simple, proven publishing template?
3. Here's the real hard question: do you honestly WANT to be successful,
to be a leader and have people look up to your success in your market??

If you said yes to just two out of three, you're gold! You have what it
takes, seriously. There are no hidden tricks, no over-priced
"consulting" fees or expensive self-publishing costs. You can create and
publish your very own book, in ANY field of expertise, in a matter of
just a few days and get it distributed on two of the most powerful
publishing platforms in the world today: Amazon and iTunes. There are
literally hundreds of millions of users downloading self-published
eBooks every day, and people have made millions of dollars selling their
expertise and promoting their own businesses. YOU can be one of these
legitimate success stories, not those over-hyped and undervalued "info
products". You know your expertise is worth its weight in gold... so now
is the right time to show the world your stuff!

It's my friend Alicia Dunams's amazing method to help anyone (even me)
have a completed book at the end of one weekend. You start the
weekend...you end with a book. She's got the whole process down to a
science. If you would like to know just how it's possible to write a
book in a weekend, then I've got something cool for you. Alicia is doing
a webinar on exactly how to do it.

In this 60 minute presentation, you will discover:
* 5 proven and easy steps to write not just any book, but a bestselling book, in one weekend.
* What's keeping you from writing a book and how you can instantly overcome it. (Alicia really knows how to inspire action.)
* How to select a title that sells.
* How to catapult yourself to the top ranks of the world's biggest bookseller -- Amazon.com.
...and, much, MUCH more!

Hello, everyone-
I hope this note finds you well, and enjoying more visitors to your business,
during our beautiful spring weather.

Much is happening with ACT. And I hope you are excited about the following:

First, Jackson Rancheria Casino Resort has named ACT the beneficiary of "A
Divine Affair," Saturday, June 1st, 1 pm to 4 pm. Thank you to the
wineries that have agreed to pour at this event. If you are interested in
participating as a business, please contact Bailey Freund (bfreund@jacksoncasino.com)
or Emily Tirapelle (etirapelle@jacksoncasino.com). Tickets are $20 in advance
online or $25 at the door. Please thank Jackson Rancheria for their generosity,
when you see them.

We also are listing that weekend as an Amador event: Plan B: Barbera. Barbera
Festival, scheduled for June 8th, sold out quickly (congrats to the organizers
again). And because there is pent-up demand, ACT is encouraging folks to come
up the weekend before: June 1st and 2nd. If you wish to plan a small event or
offer a discount to anyone who mentions "Plan B: Barbera," please
forward your ideas to us. We will list them on the website and in our upcoming
e-newsletter to promote "A Divine Affair" as the highlight to the
weekend. We have Italian Picnic and Parade that weekend as well. Please show
your support for ACT by putting together a room/meal package that includes
"A Divine Affair." We will all benefit. Thank you in advance for your
support.

In ACT's 10th Anniversary year, we are assembling our fifth edition of our
travel planner. It will release at State Fair and be in circulation for 18
months. Very few ad spots are left. If you want to participate and have not
communicated with us, call the office this week at 267-9249.

State Fair volunteer shifts are available as well. State Fair runs July 12th
through July 28th. We provide each shift with 2 fair passes and one parking
pass, in thanks for your help at the Amador
County exhibit booth.
Please call if you are willing to share your time and enthusiasm for Amador County.

Last, our next evening meeting is Thursday, June 13th, 5:30 pm, at Renwood
Winery. ACT will be rolling out its brand new website design. Thank you,
Renwood, for agreeing to host the meeting. Please save the date for this
exciting update. I know you will want to be the first on your block to know how
your business will benefit from the new web design.

I thank you for your continued support. Please do not hesitate to call or email
the office with questions or suggestions. We love to hear from you.

Sutter Creek hosts the 11th Annual Trash to Treasures Street
FairSaturday May 25, 2013 8am to
close
Eureka Street
and Main Street Parking lot of Sutter Creek.
Sponsored by the Sutter Creek Business & Professional Association

What they say is true…one man’s trash is another man’s
treasure. Sutter Creek’s largest street fair, the 11th Annual Trash to Treasures
event will definitely prove that saying right. On Saturday May 25th from 8am
on, vendors from all over will be selling everything from new to old, with a
host of antiques, collectibles and wonderful junk!

Live music will fill
the air as you meander through the booths. There will be so much to see and
buy, it can fill your whole day, but don’t forget to wander down historic Main Street and
visit all the wonderful and unique shops there also. Many stores will have
marked down merchandise outside for you to find even more bargains. Top your
day off with wine tasting at the family owned tasting rooms on Main Street, and
then dinner at one of our fine restaurants.

With beautiful Sutter Creek as the
magical backdrop, your day of treasure hunting will be a day to remember!
